Privacy officials from the European Commission and Singapore aim to deepen their cooperation on data protection efforts, Singapore’s Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) announced yesterday.
The PDPC news release explains that the 2022 EU-Indo-Pacific Joint Declaration on privacy and the protection of personal data shows that the EU and Singapore share a common vision to “harness the opportunities of the digital transformation through a human-centric approach where the effective protection of personal data plays a crucial role and is a key enabler for cross-border cooperation.”
Both sides welcomed further cooperation to expand their efforts to other regional data protection networks and said they intended to further develop their partnership to enhance data protection and trusted data flows, including through the use of privacy-enhancing technologies to “support the digital economy and advance the protection of children in the digital environment,” the PDPC said.
